Ninja - Flip Toaster 9-in-1 Digital Air Fry Oven

Has this one and don’t love the air fryer performance.

My airfryer is a toaster oven style that is all chrome. Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 from Costco. I haven't specifically looked for PFAS free kitchenware but I would be surprised if it had any on top of the chrome.

I've never used a combo microwave/air fryer, but because of how different the components for microwave cooking and air frying are I'd be wary. I'd get a standalone microwave and a good combo toaster oven/air fryer for your counter. I have [this one](https://www.ninjakitchen.com/products/ninja-flip-toaster-oven-air-fryer-zidSP151) from Ninja and love it. Makes bagels super fast, works as a pizza oven, great air fryer, and flips up when not in use to give me back some of my limited counter space.

We have a ninja that looks like a small silver oven (I think it's like the 9-in-1) and it's fairly sleek and low profile. It also has a hinge on the back legs so it can be flipped up and take up less space. We got a good deal on it at costco. Edit to add: it's this one: Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 Digital Oven Air Fry, Air Roast/ Broil, Bake, Bagel, Toast, Dehydrate, Keep Warm, and Reheat - Stainless Steel https://a.co/d/9fPKmnb

Love it! We use ours for pretty much the exact same things. I've also made marinated chicken thighs on the bottom rack and frozen veggies on the top rack simultaneously, and it came out great. I really like the option to use either the basket or the sheet tray. And it's so quiet compared to our old one.

I have the same one and it's good. I haven't tried a basket fryer to compare though.

Family of 4, and I have a ninja foodi 9 in 1... Basically looks like a large toaster oven. Our boss bought one for the staff lunch room, and I was sold the day a coworker baked a frozen pie for us. The size and shape make it really versatile. We often throw hash brown patties or several slices of toast in it; we use it for fries or onion rings multiple times a week, and have also used it for roasting potatoes, asparagus, and more. I haven't tried the dehydrate setting yet but everything I have tried, it works.

Personally I wouldn't want a pressure cooker to do anything other than pressure cook. I love my instapot. I would recommend a Ninja Foodi Digital airfry oven though. It replaces the toaster and airfryer plus many other settings. Its big enough where it's mostly replaced my oven all together. It tends to cook things about 30% faster than an oven without heating the house up.

We have a version of this - it’s great but a pain to clean

I have the same one, since ninja discontinued anything with a pressure option, I bought a second as a backup. I use it everyday. Counldnt recommend it more.

Our oven went out at the beginning of covid so I got one to make it through until we could get a new one. It was over a year until we got one. I've hardly used it as I use the ninja every day. It's just hubs and I also, kids are grown. It's just so convenient. I can cook a roast from froze in an hour, or throw in some muffins for 10 minutes without heating up the house. Pork steaks are so good air fried, and hubs does have to start the grill. Walmart still has some, but they aren't as heavy duty as my old one. Amazon has a few in the renewed section too. That's where I got my first one.

We have the Ninja Foodi 9 in 1 that looks almost like a pizza oven and then folds up vertically to open up counter space. I love it. It fits a frozen pizza nicely. Ours is probably 2 years old, and we use it at least weekly, if not more often. I think they consider the new version of it as part of their "oven" line-up. It definitely has replaced us using our oven for small batches, especially with the fact that it heats up so fast because it's not huge.

I have a ninja air fryer/ toaster oven combo I use it everyday and it saves electricity not using my big oven. Love it

I have a ninja airfryer, toaster combo and I love that mfer. I haven't used my oven in over a year. It's just me and my roommate, so we don't need a massive meal, just enough space to roast/fry/bake a meal for two.

I have a ninja that is a do it all oven. Has air fryer settings. I’ve been making wings in it recently and they’ve come out great

I have a ninja oven like that one with an air fryer setting and it’s bad. I have a ninja air fryer like the air fryer pictured as well, it’s great.

My Ninja Toaster over Air Fryer does like 10 different things. I can cook a pizza in it no problem, fresh and frozen. I never use my oven anymore

The one that flips up to save counter space. It's also a really good toaster to be honest. It only takes a few minutes to toast bread

I’ve never had any problems with any of my Ninja products (bullet, double stack XL, or slushi), but I will say that their instructions are more detailed than most, plus obviously they are more expensive, but I think that has to do a lot with product reputation.  The only thing I don’t like about the double stack is that the top rack is so narrow. After finding[ this thread on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/user/No-Competition-5766/comments/1i5jdq2/air_fryer_models_comparison_spreadsheet/) and comparing the different Ninja models, I think that the Foodi might be a better fit for me. I thought I’d share, though, as you can compare all the different brands.

Did you ever end up buying a different air fryer? I know plenty of people who have gone from a basket style to a toaster oven style, but not the other way around because they’d lose so many features. I recently upgraded from a basket style to a Ninja toaster oven model (I used this fantastic [brand and model database](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y4PR6GCz-Lk5mWX1LUzo-3kChRBv302vSv5HZFB5K1c/edit) to help narrow things down). I agree with you that the “air frying” feature isn’t quite the same, but the glass door helps me monitor things and make sure they don’t get too toasty/crispy. 

I can back that up. We have the ninja toaster oven air fryer thing and while it's a good all-arounder it isn't as good as our old basket air fryer It especially is bad for bacon, which was so easy to deal with in the basket. The tray gets kinda fucked but it came with two so one is in the dishwasher and the other does the cooking

which one? my ninja foodie is also a mini oven/air fryer combo, but I still like it because it preheats in a minute

The third one in the list, the Ninja Air Fry Oven, was terrible for me. So much grease would get everywhere even when using the drip pan. I went to the first one in the list, the bucket style Ninja, and it’s so much better.

We also lack counter space. We like the Flip, but keeping it clean is quite challenging

My parents have the flip ninja one and it’s alright. Needs to be a tad taller but not like their huge model.

I have the ninja flip, from what I’ve pieced together from mine would be turning the fan on/off (air frying vs baking), broiling (only turns top heating element on), and dehydrating (low temp and maybe fan for a long time). I think toasting might turn top and bottom heating elements on at the same as well, ultimately just leaving it on air fry would realistically do all of it but selecting those individually might be slightly more efficient

Oh it’s definitely the most intuitive air fryer I have ever had, the only downside to me is how hard it is to clean since my model can’t remove the bottom panel like some can

I read point 2 and love my toaster ninja xl airfryer oven and than my basket style because of it’s versatility.

I like my Ninja oven and air fryer combo for its versatility and speed of cooking - plus the results I'm getting on everything coming out of it are outstanding imo. Roasted a whole stuffed chicken last week as well as cooking scratch made pizza. Outstanding!!

Not any good as an air fryer. Basket air fryers are the only good ones for air frying. And they can do other stuff pretty well. Toaster ovens are pretty good at being toaster ovens and truly awful at being an air fryer. Anytime I hear someone complaining about their "air fryer" it's one of the toaster oven ones. Putting a fan in it doesn't make it an air fryer. The main issue (which is absolutely critical imo) is that they never have room to cook things that are tall. Whole wings, chicken legs, skin in thighs, etc. will never work properly. Additionally they often have the burner on the bottom, which means there is a drip tray, which causes all kinds of inconveniences and makes it significantly harder to get stuff crispy. If you can find one where the burner is coupled directly with the fan (i hear they exist) then that'd be your best bet. That Ninja counter folding one is an amazing toaster oven. It is literally the worst air fryer. People who love it either use it as a toaster oven or have no idea what a real air fryer is like. My girlfriend's family raves about it, but it can't make whole wings... So instant fail imo.

I have 2 instead. I have the cosori basket 6 qt and the ninja foodie (toaster oven style) and both are amazing.

we have the ninja flip. It is my first air fryer so I have no other comparison, but its 100% stainless steel and shaped like a toaster oven. WE LOVE IT.

Yeah we got it because we have no counter space and needed an appliance that can do multiple things. It's awesome. We use it daily, too. It's especially great for quick lunches.

It’s a Ninja and I love mine

Honestly haven’t explored too many cooking modes yet but it’s a neat trick how the thing flips outta the way if you’re tight on counter space, the control panel is surprisingly intuitive, gotta like smart touches like the interior light coming on at the end of cycle or being controllable manually.

No, the basket is aluminum, the grill surface is aluminum, and the plate is Teflon. You can’t clean the damn thing either.

I bought the ninja flip over 5 years ago and it’s still going strong! I use it 4+ times a week. It’s basically replaced my oven.

Same. Had the Cuisinart which we hated. Broke and returned for the ninja flip. Love this thing so much more!

Who the heck has time for one piece of toast at a time? 🤣. My ninja foodie flip away does 9 at a time..... maybe I have a problem.

I have this one and it's been great. I previously had the Ninja flip oven and it broken less than a year. This Gourmia is so much easier to clean whereas the Ninja was a huge hassle. I'm pretty happy with it. 5/5 for me

I have the smaller version that can flip up to save counter space when not used. I would not want a basket type because I like to use mine as a mini oven. Having eaten food from a basket style, the basket does do better at air frying. But I don't have a lot of space for all the appliances. I do use it as an oven more than air fry

I upgraded to the flip from a basket style air fryer. So I have both. I tend to use the Flip more than the basket style. The tray makes doing four chicken breasts fast and easy. But I do note it takes longer in the flip so,it’s hard to take on a new recipe without monitoring everything.

I have the Ninja Foodie oven one. I figured out some liners that solved the cleanup issue, and it’s my go to for cooking a big batch of chicken breasts.

I got this one for my dad a few Christmases ago; I HAAATE how short it is, you have like a 3in. height limit for anything you want to cook lol might be good for OP tho, he said size is a main priority but my dad's already wanting to replace his 😅

I got the Ninja Foodi air fryer oven that flips up. It's not the largest, but it is pretty versatile. Air frying is so-so.  The cooking times for the oven are about the same as my standard oven, but preheating is a fraction of the time, which I like. Sheet pan meals are a snap. Keeping it clean is an issue. I am religious about cleaning it, but there is only so much I can do, especially the heating elements. My experience with Gourmia is they were substandard. I would not go back to that brand.

I found the slide on the drawer to be incredibly annoying. It would get stuck just enough to require enough force to where the whole unit would move sometimes. I ended up returning it and getting the flip up ninja and I've been very happy with it.

I love my ninja flip up but am I missing out not using a basket air fryer? Aside from being a pain to clean on the sides and back, I feel it crisps up nice unless I don’t know better?

It works great on pizza for sure. I wish I had the space for both but it would clutter my counters.

I use my IP more, but I rarely use our full-size oven since we got our air fryer toaster oven. We have one of the Ninja flip up models, and it’s great if you also don’t have a lot of counterspace.

Love my ninja flip oven. Fries come out great in the basket. Pizza cooks quick on pizza selection. Im still trying stuff but im happy with it. Doesn't heat up the whole house in summer.

I also had a Ninja flip and it just wasn’t as good as basket style air fryers. I also went back to a basket style.

I have the ninja flip. Great idea but I don’t like it. Does a poor job of air frying. Does not get things crispy. Also you can’t put things in it that are not relatively flat. And hard to clean. I’ll probably go back to the bucket kind.

The Ninja flip style air fryers are great for baking, toasting, roasting, air frying, dehydrating, and more. Takes up a bit of counter space but the flip up feature saves some space when not in use and the size is great for heating up pizzas. Why get an air fryer if you’re not going to fry things with it?

The flip up ones.

I largely disliked it, outside of the capacity. Before you read below, I'd say my wife and I used this unit moderately (i.e. regular cleaning, used 2 to 3 times a week). First of all, the screen makes a buzzing sound that is super annoying. That's a minor annoyance, but one that infuriated me more and more the longer I owned the thing and saw the other short-comings. Secondly, it doesn't air-fry all that well. It isn't bad, but if all you need is a dedicated air-fryer, well, this thing is assuredly worse than a basket air-fryer. Thirdly, this thing makes a f***ing mess. It's hard to clean, the crumb/ drip tray is a really bad design (the seams can leak food oil directly beneath the machine). I can appreciate the idea of having an outside accessible crumb pan, but in practice it is just not worth it. Fourth, the finish on the thing started peeling within one year (black coated model) and the function stickers were rubbing off within 6 months. At this price-point the function indicators 'ought to have been engraved. Fifth, it takes far longer to heat up than conventional air-fryers. Sixth, the g**d*mned light on it turns off after like 5 seconds. No adjusting it, no keeping it on, just an annoying button you have to keep pressing if you're keeping an eye on what you're cooking. After you cook with this and you get annoyed at all of the above, the softly buzzing screen incessantly reminds you that you definitely overpaid for this unit. If I had to summarize this thing: it is far far far overpriced for a machine that really doesn't do anything special that other oven-style air-fryers don't, and MOST CERTAINLY NOT justifiable at 3x the cost given the shortcomings. I replaced it with one of the flip up Ninja thingies a while ago and never looked back. No, I can't roast a whole chicken in it, but I can do everything else (pizza, toast, air fry, etc).

Ninja Foodi Flip. It's pretty big but also pretty flat (made specifically to fit a whole frozen pizza) but you can flip it upright when you're not using it. Had mine for like four years and no problems

My only gripe with the Ninja Foodie we have (the one that flips up) is something dripped onto the lower heating elements and it is impossible to clean.

We have the Ninja Foodi oven style one. It's great and it's large enough to cook small meals.

Concur on ninja x in 1s. Toasts, air fries, bakes - the other "features" are kind of superfluous but the effect is the same. Also, mine folds up to the wall so it takes up a lot less counter space when not in use

Given all the research you’ve already done, you’ve probably seen that giant comparison database of air fryers floating around Reddit [here, I bookmarked it](https://www.reddit.com/u/MaterialisticOcelot/s/AuYboNaNB6). It’s super handy if you want to line up the details down to the very last spec. I personally have the Ninja Foodi and really like it, but I wouldn’t really consider it a “budget” pick since it runs close to $200. That said, I do think you get what you pay for with these. I’d be careful about going under $50 on an appliance you expect to last.

Foodi pressure cooks just fine Depends. Any device with "air fry" mode is going to be a compromise compared to a real air fryer. Personally I find the Foodi's two lid system to be clunky and annoying to deal with. I pretty much just use my convection oven instead of the foodi. I use a stovetop pressure cooker myself. But I definitely wouldn't recommend the foodi for mainly pressure cooking because the air fryer lid is permanently attached. So that would be pretty much always in the way.

Glad to see this and I wanted to echo the same. We’ve had our Ninja Foodi for 6 years and use it 2x a week at a minimum. It will die eventually, but I definitely feel it’s a worthwhile buy.

I have two Ninja air fryers that don’t have teflon. A Foodi and Foodi 6 in 1 (it toasts, air fries, etc).

Not BIFL but Ninja Foodi took an absolut beating from us. It's slowing down but considering how much use we've got out of it I am damn impressed.

We use ours literally everyday. Prob like 6 years too. I find it takes a while to heat up now it's on its way out but we rely on this so much.

the ninja foodi is awesome!

I had a Foodie for a few years until it stopped working. It was a great pressure cooker and a decent air fryer but I am much more satisfied with separate devices now.

Love my Nina foodi, aside from the size of it

We like our Ninja Foodie. It has a large counter footprint when in use, but folds up against the wall.

I have a Ninja Foodi air fryer that is still going strong after 5 yrs of usage and it is still geting use multiple times a week.

Ninja foodi is my holy grail. I’ve had it for 5 years. I do everything with it. I couldn’t recommend a better one. Super plus is you can remove the cooking basket and wash it. It’s not connected to plastic. Easy to clean. Lots of function. Pressure cooking, baking, dehydrating, slow cooker, air fryer. List goes on.

I like the Instant Pot much better. I got a Foodi as well, but am trying to resell it as I don't think it's as nice or useful. Plus the materials aren't as quality. The pressure cook option in my Foodi sometimes doesn't work whereas my 3 IPs always do and are really easy to clean. The Foodi has the Air Crisp option which is pretty nice, but not worth it for the sheer size of the Foodi. It's a beast and very heavy.

Yeah this is the same reason I don't really use my Foodi. It's also very loud whereas my Instant Pot (I happen to have 3) are quiet as a mouse. For pressure cooking alone the Instant Pot brand beats Ninja out imo. I prefer the basic IP models, as they are really good at what they do, alas the Ninja does more. I like the air crisp option on my Foodi but I'm not sure that alone is worth it. Bacon and burgers are really good in it after pressure cooking but chicken is gross on that one I learned. Ninja just doesn't excel to me in pressure cooking as it sometimes doesn't come to pressure at all. I'm actually trying to sell mine after only using it a few times.

I’ve had my Ninja Foodi for 4 years. Use it daily and it’s still fine.

I’ve had a Ninja Foodi for years. Usually more than £100 but think you can get manufacturer refurbs off of eBay for close to that price. It’s more than just an air fryer. It also has pressure cooker, sauté, roast, dehydrate as well as other functions I don’t use. Best use for me is for sausages, can get up in the morning, chuck them in there for 13 minutes and they’re done without having to tend to them. Also use the pressure cooker for curries, and you can brown the meat in there first before switching to pressure. Mrs even used it to dehydrate orange slices to make her own Christmas wreathes. We wouldn’t be without it.

Ninja Foodi does just fine

It’s amazing honestly I love it it has so many options, 2 racks, a light, half way turnover timer, tons of cooking options such as baking, roasting, broiling etc. it also doesn’t have PUFAS/ PFAS or whatever all that stuff everyone is concerned about. The top rack also doubles as a cooling rack. It’s a bit of a pain to clean but that’s the same thing with most air fryers since they need ventilation holes in the surfaces to effectively circulate the hot air. The window is nice to be able to see your food. It’s a pretty nice size, enough to put enough food for 2 adults and 2 kids. It also comes with a cool little laminated air frying guide that shows about 60 different foods and how long to cook them for, what temp etc. it’s definately better than your typical chef man and lower end fryers priced at this range but if you’re looking for something a bit nicer around $120 I recommend the ninja foodie.

I bought a Ninja Foodi on sale for $189 and it lasted 4 years until the lights wouldn't come on in it anymore. It still fried and toasted at least 2 times a day everyday though. So we bought the same model again since the lights are not replaceable. Not technically BIFL, but we think it is worth every penny and inch of counterspace it takes up.

The Ninja Foodi Air Fryer has a bake setting that I use all the time

Had a PowerXL one that worked great for about 5 years of near daily use before it bit the dust last year. Got a Ninja Foodi to replace it and have been pretty happy with it. I really like that it folds away when not using it to save on counter space and that its big enough to make a meal for the whole family.

My Ninja Foodi came with a non-stick pot, but I bought a replacement stainless steel pot on Amazon. I also replaced the non-stick rack with stainless steel. If anyone is concerned about the inner pot it’s easy to replace. Worth a little extra investment to protect our birds.

Same here. Just buy a replacement pot and the problem is solved.

I have a Ninja Foodi that has been my primary device for years, bought one of these to combo with it as I couldn't pass up the pricing, and I actually use it more often my Ninja now! Of course there are certain functions that only my Foodi is capable of, but when it comes to plain ol' air frying the Gourmia is great

I'd vote for the Ninja foodie. I've been very happy with it after I bought and returned the Sur La Table. The slt is not only impossible to clean, but whoever designed & programed the UI (User interface) should be handed over to ISIS.

Same, I did just purchase a stainless steel pot because my nonstick coating was starting to chip. Otherwise the things been trouble free.

The Ninja Foodi and Cosori Pro are two of the best air fryers for even cooking, large capacity, and versatility. Instant Vortex Plus is another great choice with multiple functions like roasting and dehydrating. If you want something high-end, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer is excellent.

Ninja Foodi Dual Zone for multi-cooking, Cosori Pro LE for a compact design, Instant Vortex Plus for versatility, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer for premium features, and Philips Premium XXL for large portions.

Top air fryer picks include Ninja Foodi Dual Zone for multi-cooking, Cosori Pro LE for compact efficiency, Instant Vortex Plus for versatility, Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer for premium features, and Philips Premium XXL for large portions.

Yeah, this is weird - Ninja in the US has always said the opposite and people recommend them highly for that reason. I can even feel that mine are not like non-stick pans, it's definitely ceramic and not fully non-stick. I wonder if something changed, or if this is one of the things Europe/UK have less health restrictions compared to the US? We have a huge movement of objects being healthier for us, including pans and bakeware made without these chemicals. I feel like I mainly see the PTFE/PFOA-free pans compared to those with, now, even in cheap places like Walmart.

I had a Ninja Foodi, loved it and the surface area you have with it, it was great for reheating pizza. It doesn't crisp up the food quite as well as the basket style ones, but good enough. The fan on mine got clogged with grease after a month or two, and it is essentially impossible to clean. I cleaned it up as well as I could and used it another couple years, now I have a Dreo and the Foodi lives in the pantry until I need to reheat pizza. The Dreo is excellent. 10/10 as an air fryer, and the smart probe cooking actually works great, except I think mine had a software problem that would turn a 45 minute cook into 3 hours at random. A warranty replacement comes soon. The original works perfectly as a basic air fryer, so I'll give it to a friend. Ninja conventional air fryers I rate 1/10. I do not understand how they can not have a window so you know when the food is ready. We have one in our office kitchen, and unless you open it constantly, it is a total gamble how your food comes out. I have had a couple items that I followed the packaging directions and they came out burnt black and smoking. It's too bad because when you get the timing right, the Ninja does a nice job, just as good as the Dreo and better than the Foodi. Also, I don't understand why they have to preheat for longer than it takes to cool the food. An item that I know takes 4 minutes at 400 in my Dreo takes 4 minutes at 400 in the Ninja, but the Dreo requires no preheating and the Ninja needs a few minutes of preheating time. If the food comes out the same from both air fryers, why is the Ninja taking all that preheating time?

Love our ninja foodi

I recently bought the Cosori Pro 2 and it completely blew my ninjas out of the water. I had a Ninja Foodi and the Ninja AF101 and Dual Zone (endless cycles of upgrading and gifting to friends who didnt have an air fryer). Got a Cosori as an extra air fryer. It was $48 on clearance at walmart due to the red color not being very popular. The Cosori performs better than the Ninja in a very key aspect, the removable basket design. Since the sides are also detachable from the overall basket, they can add vents to the side of the basket. This allows the circulation of air to the underside even if the basket is completely full. Ninja's removable plate design would always result in a soggy underside if I overfilled due to the air being unable to circulate. In a scenario where both are half empty, they perform the same - slight edge to the Ninja.The removable basket vents no longer makes me afraid of just dumping a bag of fries This is not worth selling your Ninja and buying a new Cosori. These downfalls can be easily solved by preheating, shaking or simply not overfilling. But it's nice to just set it and forget it And just a preference, I infinitely prefer cleaning the dual basket than trying to remove a hot plate from the bottom

Yes, the Ninja Foodi is one of the best air fryers. It has great feedback and reviews.

I have the Ninja foodie and love it. Purchased the stainless pot to avoid the Teflon type coatings.
